Loving the sewing machine

I've always liked the effect of sewing on card and, seeing as I had the sewing machine at the ready after a quilting spell, thought I would give it a go!  It made a great border!  I used Cherry Cobbler and Always Artichoke on Sahara Sand as my colour combo.

Just Add Ink challenge 74 - fancy folds blog hop!

Touring around the Just Add Ink's DT blogs trying to choose a particular fancy fold was no mean feat today - they are all so cool!  I decided to go with the trishutter card on Kim's blog, as I've always wanted to do one of these and have never gotten around to it...  Kim's awesome card was the inspiration I needed!

I did the card entirely with Lap of Luxury DSP, with a Sahara Sand textured 12x12 as the base and a little Blushing Bride pattern paper.

The gorgeous children are my two beautiful daughters, who DO make my life beautiful.  :)
